PennDOT has rescheduled overnight closures on Route 66 as work continues on the Graff and Infantry Bridge preservation projects.
Northbound Route 66 and South Water Street will now close nightly from May 11 through May 29, running from 8 p.m. to 4 a.m., as crews pour the bridge deck and complete other repair work. The schedule was pushed back due to weather, and no closures are planned during the Memorial Day holiday weekend.
During the closures, drivers will be detoured along Route 66 South, Route 128, 17th Street, Hill Street, and back to South Water Street. Officials say all work is weather dependent.
The project is being handled by Swank Construction Company of New Kensington and carries a price tag of $45.6 million. Completion is expected by the end of October 2027.
